ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES

Why do we need aops

to reduce the amount of toxic and refractory compounds that resist biological oxygen treatments. it essentially reduces the COD, before bio treatment and after primary treatment. high COD compounds may cause the microbes to die bpduring bio treatments

wet oxidation

  • bubble column
  • 250-300⁰C, 2MPa
  • expensive
  • Cu/Fe catalysts
  • sewage treatment, nitrogenous ww, petrochemical ww
